Benefits of technology

[0004]Embodiments of the present invention relate to hair cutting combs with a t-top member for retaining one or more razors during use. Hair cutting combs made according to some embodiments of the present invention are more cost-efficient to manufacture and safer for end users.
[0006]In some embodiments, the first member may include comb teeth oriented substantially perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the first member. For example, the razor may extend from within a cavity of the first member to within the comb teeth. The razor may be exposed between at least two neighboring ones of the comb teeth to effect hair cutting. In some embodiments, a block out is provided between at least two neighboring comb teeth to prevent exposure of the razor and cutting of hair.
[0008]In still other embodiments, the second member may include a grip (e.g., one or more raised edges). The grip may facilitate an application of force by an end user that causes sliding of the second member relative to the first member.

Problems solved by technology

Despite their usefulness, conventional hair tools are typically difficult and expensive to manufacture, and can be unsafe for end users.

Embodiment Construction

[0026]FIG. 1 is a front view of a hair cutting comb 100 according to some embodiments of the present invention. Cutting comb 100 includes member 102 generally in the shape of the letter “T” (also referred to herein as a t-top member), body member 104, and razors 106 and 108. Body member 104 includes comb 110 and hair tools 112 and 114. Comb 110 is connected to hair tools 112 and 114 by neck 116. The blades of razors 106 and 108 extend outwardly from a cavity of body member 104 to within the comb teeth of hair tools 112 and 114, respectively. The exposure of the blades between the comb teeth provides a hair cutting capability. However, the positioning of the razors within the comb teeth and the separation of the comb teeth may guard against the cutting of larger objects such as the fingers of an end user.

[0027]In some embodiments, the blades of razors 106 and 108 may extend only a portion (e.g., one third) of the way through the comb teeth. In some embodiments, one or both of hair to...

Abstract

A hair tool is provided that includes a first member for housing at least one razor and a second member formed generally in the shape of the letter “T”. The second member may be configured for matable attachment to the first member to resist ejection of the at least one razor from the first member.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to hair combs that include one or more razors for cutting hair, and more particularly, to hair cutting combs with a t-top member for retaining the razors during use.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Hair tools are known that can both comb and cut hair. Generally, such hair tools include comb teeth for combing hair in a conventional manner. The hair tools also include a razor for cutting hair. Despite their usefulness, conventional hair tools are typically difficult and expensive to manufacture, and can be unsafe for end users.[0003]In view of the foregoing, it would be desirable to provide improved hair cutting combs.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0004]Embodiments of the present invention relate to hair cutting combs with a t-top member for retaining one or more razors during use. Hair cutting combs made according to some embodiments of the present invention are more cost-efficient to manufacture and safer fo...
